It is indeed Supermode that you use to access multiple MIDI channels. Don't feel bad about forgetting; I've just started making music again with my Emax II...
Hi Everyone. I'm excited to be a part of this group. I bought my Emax HD SE in 1989. I would like to use it again, but it has myriad problems now. I've read...
So- first off we need to know what is wrong..... Is it the floppy? HD not working, etc? Thx, Ted ... [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
Hi, Thanks for posting your story, it's quite inspirational! I have an emax HD SE rack unit that I want to modify as you have done and I had a few questions. ...
Hi - anyone know what the largest hard drive an Emax II can access? I tried putting in a 4Gb drive and it aborted the format after about ten minutes. Put in a...
Hi John, I believe the maxiumu HD size is around 540MB on the Emax II. You might want to look into replacing the hard disk with a SCSI flash drive. A 512MB...
I am interested in doing this as well. I was looking potentially at any SCSI reader on ebay. But then I saw, not all are writers, so be careful when...
Hiya Davide, Any chance of you posting those photographs yet? I'm dying to get this thing working again, but I just don't have the nerve (or maybe that's ...
Thanks Tristan. The flash drive is a great idea and one I hadn't thought of. As I said, I have a 700Mb HD in my Emax II now and it is perfectly happy so 540...
hi i'm fresh new to the group and i can' t find the instructions for making an SE upgrade disk with EMAXUTIL (it says it can't read the SEUP .EM1 file)as it...
Hi John, Have you managed to actually fill the drive though? I remember reading some time back that although the Emax II could save 100 banks, with up to 8MB...
EmaxII can certainly access more than 540 MB of hard disk space. In fact the EMAX-II file access table of harddisks and CDs can handle almost any size. Of...
Interesting, I was not aware of that. So, do you know what maximum capacity the Emax II can physically format a hard disk to? Is it possible to use EMXP to...
I don't know the maximum size, the biggest one I've seen so far is 632 MB (CDROM), but that's because I don't have any HD here of more than 510 MB, so I can't...
I think many of us would like this option and so I am seriously thinking about taking a plunge here. Proposed Idea: Get a SCSI to IDE converter ($40 on ebay) -...
Are the two unknown bytes in the format structure per bank/file or per disk? I guess they could be some kind of checksum. I have only ever had a 100MB Zip...
Well, the HD has been dead for a long time, and the LCD is intermitant at best and when it does show me somthing, half the time, it's gibberish. Eddy ... Emax ...
hi all... glad that my story will benefit the group! Chris, your sequence is pretty much correct. i'll just restate everything that i did here, and feel free...
Well- I have been seeing the LCD's pretty regularly on ebay for about $23 + shipping. I paid $15 for mine, but special ordered and it took 3 months. So if you...
Since you live in SoCal- do you ever go to the computer swap meets down there? I went to the one in Pomona a couple of times, and saw a wide variety of stuff...
I've got an atx power supply waiting to go into my Emax 1 SE Rack, since the original PSU went bang. I know there are helpful Emax users out there who've...
i'm in san diego, and i actually go to the swap meets down here quite often (it was actually my second stop after ebay in trying to score a reader for...
I just got out my multimeter and figured out the voltages of the existing wiring from my working Emax I power supply. It is as follows: Green: Ground/Earth...
Dave, Thank you so much. That is so clear and thorough. You've filled in all the gaps left by the other descriptions of using an ATX on this message board. I...
Thanks for the reply -- I've started ordering parts, so it's in process. Haven't seen many readers so far: Intermart seems to have been bought by SCM, so I'm...
Hello, I have a Emax I SE with a faulty disk drive. The lamp of the floppy drive shines but the drive doesn't work any more. In the display I can read the...
If you are technically inclined, you should be able to make most standard floppies work. I was able to. The drive just needs to be able to be made a "Drive 0"...
Hello I have been using my emax for about a year now. Not ver often. Anyway I recently have found some time to record tunes again. After recording my emax...
Recently I noticed noise while recording/monitoring on the main outputs on my EMAX. If your not doing it already , try assigning the program to one of the...
Yes thanks mike. The emax is a fine sounding machine. I actually noticed it the other day when mixing a track. The drums sounded dull. After time spent...
